Law & Order: Criminal Intent (2001–2011)

The series primarily functions as a procedural crime drama, focusing on the intricate psychological motivations behind individual criminal acts and the process of solving them within the existing legal framework. It largely avoids explicit political commentary or systemic critiques, maintaining a neutral stance by concentrating on the mechanics of justice rather than championing a specific ideology.

The series features visible diversity within its cast, particularly in supporting and recurring roles, without explicitly recasting traditionally white characters. Its narrative primarily focuses on crime-solving, maintaining a neutral stance on traditional identities and not centering on explicit DEI themes.
